similar to: ssh-add bug

Hi all, I have a script which calls ssh-add at a certain point, and I'm getting the following error: ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory I don't see why it's doing this, since SSH_ASKPASS isn't set, and there should be a working terminal: SSH_ASKPASS If ssh needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the

Hi, Appologies for a possibly inexact bug report but I've noticed a change in behaviour from openssh version 2.5.2p2 to 2.9p2. One of my many uses for openssh is setting up a secure tunnel from my home machine to an external mail server and using fetchmail over said tunnel. When done in this manner fetchmail actually starts up openssh. When I moved from 2.5.2p2 -> 2.9p2 (both compiled

We're developing a security application (http://iscs.sourceforge.net) that uses SSH for out-of-band management. Sometimes we want to use rsa keys and other times we want to use user ids and passwords. We noticed that there was not an OpenSSH API that we could use to pass the user's password and that we could not give it via stdin. We did notice that we could set SSH_ASKPASS and launch

Hi, When we added U2F support, we also extended the interface used by ssh and ssh-agent to invoke the $SSH_ASKPASS program. Originally, the askpass prompt was used to obtain passphrases for ssh in cases where it was not possible to read them from the terminal. Later it was (ab)used for showing confirmation prompts for each use of any key that was added to the agent using "ssh-add -c".

Hi everybody, I have asked a question a long time ago regarding SSH_ASKPASS, but with the latest version of OpenSSH I am not able to get the desired result. My goal is to launch a script on a remote server via SSH without having to type a password, because it is locally executed from a script. This should not be too complicated, but somehow I am not able to figure this out myself. I have

Hi, I had developed a program which spawns a shell where i am trying to use ssh commands to log into a linux server. There is a pop up dialog window which is prompting me for key-ing the password. Actually i want to get rid of this pop up dialog box, as i don't want this to be visible in my program/code execution. Could you please let me know is there any way to resolve and stop this

Dear list, I have set up SSH with the SSH_ASKPASS and DISPLAY variable set. Everything works perfectly. When ssh is used without a tty, the askpass program is executed, providing the password. But when I change the location of the askpass program, so it contains a space in the absolute path name (for example "c:\My Documents\askpass") the askpass program cannot be found. I get a

Hello, With the introduction of SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE in version 8.4, I've set up a script for SSH_ASKPASS to query my local passwordstore (https://www.passwordstore.org/) vault to retrieve the password for a given key. This works for ssh-add as well as ssh (configured with AddKeysToAgent set to 'yes'). My workflow effectively transforms into entering the password for the GPG key used

I've been giving SSH_ASKPASS a hard look, and it's not clear to me how it's supposed to work. The documentation (ssh.1) seems explicit enough: SSH_ASKPASS If ssh needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh does not have a terminal associated with it but DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS are set, it will execute

Is there a particular reason the client can't use SSH_ASKPASS for passwords when using password authentication? This would seem to be useful when using ssh in scripted commands against servers that only allow password authentication. :j -- J?rgen Botz | While differing widely in the various jurgen at botz.org | little bits we know, in our infinite

Moin, attached is a patch, which adds a new configuration option "PreferAskpass" to the ssh config. ssh{,-add,-keygen,-agent} will use ssh-askpass to prompt for passwords, if this option is set to "yes", and if ssh-askpass is available. Default for "PreferAskpass" is "no". Pacth is against current CVS. Sebastian -- signature intentionally left blank.
